Her men were exhausted and discouraged. Columbia's were eager and triumphant. "Touchdown! Touchdown!" came the insisting cries from the spectators. The ball was on Clifford's fifteen-yard line. "Touchdown it is!" declared Wallace grimly. He called his signal with snap and vim. Frank got the ball and made a desperate dive for a big gap that was opened up between Roe and McQuirk.
They had prepared for a play around their left end, but Frank quickly passed the pigskin to Ralph West, the left half, who sprang forward on the jump, and tore through a hole made between the unsuspecting right guard and tackle of Columbia's opponents.
I see there wuz a great commotion down in the water, a-snortin', and a-plungin', and a-actin' amongst the lower order of intelligences. But Columbia's eyes wuz clear, and calm, and determined, and Old Time couldn't be turned round by any prancin' from the powers below. Woman is discovered. But to resoom.
It has been as low as one cent, when grain was carried almost for ballast. British Columbia's population in 1912 was 392,480.

"I do hate Injuns!" she would often say; but quite likely would soon after be heard singing one of the hymns of the missionaries at the Dalles: "O'er Columbia's wide-spread forests Haste, ye heralds of the Lamb; Teach the red man, wildly roaming, Faith in Immanuel's name," which, if poor poetry, was very inspiring.
Ishmael to study his law books; Beatrice to give the boys their supper and see that the nurses took proper care of the children. There was a sound of revelry by night "Columbia's" capital had gathered then Her beauty and her chivalry: and bright The lamps shone o'er fair women and brave men.
Is not this the reason why so many of Columbia's sons, in spite of the magnificent opportunities she offers, send their sons elsewhere, because they realize the value of associations they have missed, and recognize the Whirlpool's changefulness?
"Ay, ay; I am your man for all that, colonel," responded the heartless tool, as the two now separated to depart on their different destinations. "What nearer foe is lurking in the glade? But joy! Columbia's friends are trampling through the shade!"
Frank would have begged off, but even the girls insisted that it would be a shame to spoil the fun. So he had to join in the festivities, and shout with the rest of Columbia's brave sons and fair daughters, as the gigantic procession wound in and out through all the town, greeted by answering cheers from the equally enthusiastic fathers and mothers from the windows.
There was an exchange of punts that ended when Bellport held the pigskin on her forty-yard line and the signal came for a play around Columbia's left end. "Watch out now, fellows!" warned Frank Allen. "Don't let 'em get through, or past you." "Eighteen twenty-seven sixty all together fourteen!" chanted Snodgrass, and back the ball was snapped to him.
